ga Prominent Dakota Man -

WASHINGTON, July IA promi-
nent Dakota man, representing the in
terests of leading city-a "trade
centre" in fact-is east trying to nego-
tiate bonds for cash. He is succeed
ing very well, too. In New York one
day last week, he met with a genial
gentleman who gave him valuable in
formation and assisted him in his bu-
siness. The gentleman is Washing
tonian, and told a story this afternoon
which is too good to withhold. The
Washingtonian is bon vivant, an epi-
cure, diner-out of the most approved
style. The Dakota man eats with a
rush. He invited the Washingtonian
to breakfast with him, and they went
to the Astor cafe. Epicure ordered
clans, fish, everything on the bill, in
fact, and spent an hour and a halt en-
joying his meal. Dakota's business
man finished his breakfast of ham and
eggs in ten minutes, and sat there in
agony until his friend arose. The bill

FLEMINGsBuRe, Kentucky, July IL.
Elias Pugh, big brute standing six
feet two inches, and aged about 80,
is the object of anxious search by sew
eral hundred citizens of this (Flemings)
county, and if caught, will be quickly
lynched. Pugh this morning outraged
Fannie Barnice, a little girl IL
years old, as she was on her way to
school. While she was passing a
lonely portion of the road, Pugh seized
and dragged her into the bushes and the
girl may die from the injuries, as she is
horribly mangled. The, outrage caused
widest indignation, both from the
brutality and on account of the social
position of the victim, who is the
adopted daughter of James Steriger,
one of the weaithiest and most prom
inent citizens of this part of Kentucky.

The Hawaiian Minister Talks.

New YORK, July 11-H. A. P. Car
ter, the Hawaiian minister at Wash
ington, who is here, speaking of the
revolution in Honolulu, said: The king
probably abandoned some Of his pre-
negatives and pledged himself to stick
more closely to the limitations of
power. | know the new chief minis
ter, w. NJ. Green, rather we'll. King
kalakaua has always been a firm
friend of the United States,a and though
the head of the new cabinet is an Eng
lishman by birth, think the move
ment is in no sense blow at Ameri-
can interests. The king did violate
the constitution sometimes, and in
that direction and many others the
change will be for the better. 1t Is

A CHINAMAN LYNCHED.
Hang Die, the Murderer of Mrs. Billion
Hanged by a Mob Of Armed Men.


SAN FRANCISCO, July IA COM
pany of National Guard troops was
placed at the Jail at Clusa, CAL, last
evening by order of the government,
in order to protect the Chinese mur-
derer, Hang Die, who shot and killed
Mrs. Billion six months ago. The ex-
element of the populace regarding
the verdict, however, fixing the penalty
at imprisonment for life was so great
that an organized attack on the Jail
was regarded as imminent. The ex-
citement having apparently died away
the guard was removed shortly before
midnight and at 2 o'clock this morning
band of armed men numbering 200
surrounded the Jail and seized the
sheriff. The entrance to the Jail
having been effected, search for the
Chinaman began and he was found
secreted under the jailor's room, having
been placed there by means of trap
door. He was taken through China
town, where not asingle light appeared,
and beyond to the railroads. Here the
Chinaman was piled with questions,
but he was so frightened that he lost
the power of speech. A rope was ad-
justed and he was strung from the
cross bar OF the railroad turntable,.
where he was left suspended.

McGlynn Exoommunicated.

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE following
letter was read in all the Roman Cath
olic churches in this city yesterday, by
instructit MS sent out by Archbishop
Corrigan:
BE it known that on May 4, 1887, the
sacred congregation of the propaganda
admonished Rev. DR.. Edward Nc
Glynn, late rector of st. Stephens
church, this city, that he had already
rendered himself liable to ecclesiasti-
cal censure by disobeying the positive
command OF the sovereign pontiff,
given Jan. II. Wishing however,
to deal leniently with him, the sa-
cred congregation refraining from
issuing censure, and offering him
further opportunity to be heard
in his own behalf, gave him
final preemptory order to pre-
sent himself at Rome within forty DAYS
from the receipt of the letter contain
ing such order, under pain of excom-
munication. This letter was duly
delivered to Rev. DR.. McGlynn. AS he
allowed the days of grace to pass un-
needed, it became our sad duty to
notify him that he incurred by his own
act this penalty of accommodation
by name, whereby he is cut off from
the communion of the church, from its
sacraments, and participation in its
prayers. and should he persevere in his
contumacy, deprived of the right after
death to Christian burial. It becomes
also our duty to declare to the clergy
and laity that Rev. DIR. Edward
McGlynn is communicated, with all
the penalties attached to this censure
by the canons OF the church.

Malone and the Virginia Debt,

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Mahone ex-
presses the utmost confidence in the
success of the Virginia republican
ticket this fall. It is understood that
he has formulated scheme in regard
to the debt which will not only secure
the support of the entire republican
party. but the approval of great
many democrats who are dissatisfied
with the course of the democratic
state government with respect to the
debt. A Massachusetts, man who has
large business interests in Virginia,
said: Malone represents the only
debt payers that there are in the state.
They are the debt payers and not the
repudiators, and are the persons really
to whom the foreign bondholders now
look for the payment of at least some
portion of the debt. Mahone's plan as
to the debt will not increase taxation,
but will increase tie debt payments.

Why Cleveland Did It.

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Persons who
claim to have good sources of infor-
nation say that they know that the
letter of the president in which he de-
elined to go to st. Louis has signif-
cance not apparent upon the surface.
"The president" said gentleman
prominently connected with Grand
Army matters, ''has been told by some
one that he can help to create a dissen-
sionin the Grand Army. force the DEM
ocratic soldiers out of it, and cripple
that organization for the presidential
campaign He seems to think that the
Grand Army is composed of two RADICAL
ly hostile camps, the democratic and the
republican soldiers, and that the demo-
Gratis are much more democrats than
they are Grand Army men. In this he
is greatly mistaken. There is no diff
erence in the Grand Army on the issue
which grew out of the war" One of
the most prominent and popular of the
Grand Army leaders here says: "There
is no strife in the ranks of the Grand
Army. Our organization has never
been political one and never will be-
The trouble with Cleveland and the
Grand Army is simply this only: He
has never said yet that the war for the
Union was right. He has never yet
shown honest sympathy for the Union
veterans. On the other hand, he has
repeatedly extolled the bravery of the
ex-confederates. Let him say once
that we fought for a good and right
eous cause, and all will be we'll"
